What happens at your appointment
Situations we handle often
Buying a car from another state
The seller's state requires a notarized signature on the title or bill of sale.
Selling a relative's car
An estate or a power of attorney is involved, and the registry wants the paperwork notarized.
Paying off a car loan
A lien release needs a notarized signature before the title is clear.
Someone else handling the transfer
You give a family member power of attorney to deal with the registry for you.
Mistakes we help you avoid
- Signing in the wrong spot. Title forms are strict. A signature in the wrong place can mean applying for a duplicate title.
- Corrections and white-out. Many states reject titles with crossed-out information. Fill it in carefully, or wait for us.
- A lien that isn't released. If there's a loan on the vehicle, the lender usually needs to release it before the sale.
- Names that don't match. The seller's name should match the title exactly. Bring proof if it has changed.
Official sources
We link to official sources so you can check the current rules yourself. Requirements change, and the receiving office always has the final word.

What to have ready

- Valid photo ID for every signer
- The buyer's and seller's full legal names, matching the title
- Odometer reading, if the form asks for it
- Any lien release or power of attorney the registry requires
Not sure if your form needs a notary? Look for a notary section on the form, or ask the registry in the state that issued the title.
Avoid these title delays
- Signing in the wrong spot or with the wrong name. Title forms are strict, and errors can mean applying for a duplicate title.
- Corrections, cross-outs and white-out. Many states reject altered titles.
- An open lien. If there's a loan on the vehicle, the lender usually has to release it first.
- Assuming Massachusetts rules apply everywhere. The state that issued the title decides whether it needs a notary.
